Lord Botetourt's Pep Club is ready for the annual drive for Toys for Tots. This year it will begin Monday, December 15th, and run until Friday, December 19th. If you do not attend LB but would still wish to donate a toy or give a cash donation simply leave your donations in the front office before or after school, leave a note stating that it is for Toys for Tots. This year there are overwhelming requests for toys and all (new/unopened) gifts are appreciated.
On December 19th, the Pep Club will hold a Winter Party in celebration of the season. Admittance will be 3 dollars and one toy. The party will begin at 4:30 pm and run until 8:30; there will be snacks and a DJ. Faculty sponsor, Stan Jones, says, "Come after school as you are," so casual dress.
Everyone knows that Christmas will be hard on the wallet this year more than most others, for a lot of people; but if you can spare even a 5 dollar toy from the Dollar General, make some little kids Christmas. There may be someone just a little worse off than you this year.
